An IDXGISwapChain interface implements one or more surfaces for storing rendered data before presenting it to an output.
interface IDXGISwapChain : public IDXGIDeviceSubObject
You can create a swap chain by calling IDXGIFactory2::CreateSwapChainForHwnd, IDXGIFactory2::CreateSwapChainForCoreWindow, or IDXGIFactory2::CreateSwapChainForComposition. You can also create a swap chain when you call D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain; however, you can then only access the sub-set of swap-chain functionality that the IDXGISwapChain interface provides.
